Easter

We decided to head down to St. George with the Morrells this year for Easter and it was so much fun! The HOA put on an amazing easter egg hunt and Crue was able to collect the max number of eggs available.  All Mike had to say to him to get him to do it, "can you help me pick these up?" and of course my little cleaner started picking up the eggs and sticking them in his basket! They also had a bouncy house (Crue didn't like it as much as I thought he would) and a big slide.  I think he went down that big slide at least 5 times.  He couldn't get enough! This shouldn't have suprised me though because when we take him to the park he has to go down the biggest slide there is and he has to do it by himself.  This boy has no fear...which I can't decide is a good or bad thing... 









(of course the only one I have of us is blurry and close up)

(apparently throwing the eggs instead of opening them up with his hands was easier)

Lately

I took Crue in to see the dr. on Friday because he wasn't acting like himself and had a fever.  Turns out our little boy has bronchitis. He was on meds all weekend but he is still wheezy and doesn't have the energy he normal does (which is kinda  nice because he lets me hold him).  I really hope he starts feeling better soon though because it breaks my heart to see him sick.

Orlando, FL

One of our gifts for Christmas was a trip to Orlando!  We had a lot of fun at Disney World, Universal, Kennedy space center, shopping at the outlets, going on an air boat tour of the everglades and laying by the pool.  We decided to not take Crue since he's still a little too young for something like this.  I missed him terribly (we were gone for 8 days) but it was nice to have a little break from being a parent 24/7.
